A top cash prize of US$25,000 is being offered by the author of a pioneering mathematics book for individuals seeking to combine the thrills of a treasure hunt with their love of calculus and life.
April 21, 2006 (Press Release) --
Mathtwists.com, a website created by the author of “New Mathematics Twists” to market the book, is offering a unique and rewarding adventure to anyone who purchases the publication.
In an open challenge to math problem-solvers everywhere, the author offers what is described as a “once in a life time opportunity”.
“[This is] a fair and even battle field to get what you deserve,” the author writes on the website. “When you solve the problems in the book, the solutions will lead you to the location of a hidden treasure.”
And the promise is: “You find it, you keep it. No hassle, no red tape.”
The book itself is a type of “mathematics for life” guide for successfully enduring and overcoming the various trials of this world through mathematical drills.
“The exercises are original and directly apply to your own life,” says the author, who is from Michigan in the United States. “Regular mathematical books are mostly about how to learn and use mathematical methods.
“The changes occurring in the global economy in this century along with the expansion of information technology require us to go beyond traditional paradigms.
“This book, a pioneer in mathematics, focuses on the development of critical thinking skills and helps the reader to internalize those skills.”
The author describes the book as like “the Da Vinci code but written in mathematics. Very intriguing and challenging”.
Among those who have read the book, Michael, from Berkeley, California, said: “This is an interesting way of thinking about mathematics.”
The first treasure hunt is already on the competition section of www.mathtwists.com. One of the problems in “New Mathematical Twists” is posted on the website and readers are asked to discover a secret email by unraveling the problem.
The winner is the first one to send his or her personal details to the hidden email.
Apart from the US$25,000, there are other cash prizes and gifts such as a laptop computer, plasma TV, free car insurance for one year and even a free full tank of gas once a week for a whole year.
All prizes total more than US$50,000.
In another unique and apt twist, the author hopes that the next 12 generations will perpetuate the competition, long after we are gone.
“The problems in the book lead to at least 372 possible solutions,” the author writes. “Each competition is designed around one of the possible solutions and is scheduled to last up to one year.
“Hence, up to 12 generations after us will have a chance to compete.”
This is a truly unique chance for math-savvy individuals to leave a lasting legacy of their love of numbers and their ability to solve life issues.
The book retails for US$24.95 via www.mathtwists.com and sells for US$29.95 elsewhere, including – but not limited to – amazon.com, Barnes & Noble and Borders. Orders can also be made through the hotline at 888.280.7715.
